The Portlands

The Portlands' Bio The Portlands formed in 2009 in the north-west of England, Manchester, and have toured the world with their distinct brand of Folk Rock 'N' Roll. After sharing studio time with Elbow only three months into their formation at Blueprint Studios, they went on to play some of the most prestigious venues in the country on their first UK Tour, and finished with a 15,000 capacity crowd festival date at the end of summer 2010.

Four Quartets

Four Quartets is the brainchild of 26 year old Rob Sharples, a talented multi-instrumentalist and composer, with a gently layered yet bitingly raw voice. For the as-yet untitled Four Quartets debut, Rob has enlisted a band of talented friends to create an album that has been entirely written and recorded in a bedroom. At times stripped back and haunting, at others multi-layered and hard-hitting, this eclectic project is both musically complex and lyrically poetic - drawing comparisons to Elliott Smith, later Bright Eyes and Radiohead.
